I like your enthusiasm. However, you listed a lot of kids who will be off the board in the draft in the top 5 rounds, with several in the top 2 rounds. Hold out hope, but I would temper the excitement level.
Here is a stat for you. Of the 312 players drafted in the top 10 rounds of last year's MLB draft, only 2 did not sign. Kumar Rocker and Jud Fabian and the Mets had a deal with Rocker but declined to sign him due to medical issues found in his physical. Basic rule of thumb - if a name is called in the top 10 rounds it is because a deal has been made prior to the announcement of the pick.

Actually they had 3 people not sign. I only know this because it was part of a conversation on the recruiting thread yesterday and I researched it. Had a high school kid that didn't sign that was drafted in the 4th. Pont still stands though. Any of LSU guys that gets picked in the top 10 rounds likely already agreed to a certain price before being drafted. Only way they wouldn't sign is if the team crawfishes on them and tries to throw them less than what they agreed on pre draft.
